Electrical Safety

General Guidelines

Warning: Do not push objects (including paper clips or staples) into slots or openings on the
printer. Making contact with a voltage point or shorting out a part could result in fire or electrical
shock.
Warning: Do not remove the covers or guards that are fastened with screws unless you are
installing optional equipment and are specifically instructed to do so. Power should be OFF when
performing these installations. Disconnect the power cord when removing covers and guards for
installing optional equipment. Except for user-installable options, there are no parts that you can
maintain or service behind these covers.
Note: Leave the printer on for optimum performance; it does not pose a safety hazard. If, however,
the printer will not be used over an extended period of time, it should be turned off and unplugged.
The following are hazards to your safety:
The power cord is damaged or frayed.
Liquid is spilled into the printer.
The printer is exposed to water.
If any of these conditions occur, do the following:
1. Turn off the printer immediately.
2. Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.
3. Call an authorized service representative.

Laser Safety

This printer complies with laser printer performance standards set by governmental, national, and international agencies and is certified as a Class 1 Laser Product. The printer does not emit hazardous light because the beam is totally enclosed during all modes of customer operation and maintenance.
Warning: Use of controls, adjustments, or performance of procedures other than those specified in
this manual can result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Power Cord

Use the power cord supplied with your printer.
Plug the power cord directly into a properly-grounded electrical outlet. Make sure each end of the
cord is securely connected. If you do not know if an outlet is grounded, ask an electrician to check
the outlet.
Do not use a ground adapter plug to connect the printer to an electrical outlet that does not have
a ground connection terminal.
Only use an extension cord or power strip designed to handle the electrical current capacity of the
printer.
Phaser 6140 Color Laser Printer

User Guide
Safety
Verify that the printer is plugged into an outlet that is capable of providing the correct voltage and
power. Review the printer’s electrical specification with an electrician if necessary.
Warning: Avoid the potential of electrical shock by ensuring that the printer is properly grounded.
Electrical products may be hazardous if misused.
Do not place the printer in an area where people might step on the power cord.
Do not place objects on the power cord.
The power cord is attached to the printer as a plug-in device on the back of the printer. If it is necessary to disconnect all electrical power from the printer, disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.

Safety

Operational Safety

Your printer and supplies were designed and tested to meet strict safety requirements. These include safety agency examination, approval, and compliance with established environmental standards. Your attention to the following safety guidelines helps to ensure the continued, safe operation of your printer.

Operational Guidelines

Do not remove the paper source tray that you selected in either the printer driver or the control
panel, when the printer is printing.
Do not open the doors when the printer is printing.
Do not move the printer when it is printing.
Keep hands, hair, neckties, etc., away from the exit and feed rollers.

Ozone Release

During print operation, a small quantity of ozone is released. This amount is not large enough to harm anyone adversely. However, be sure the room where the printer is being used has adequate ventilation, especially if you are printing a high volume of materials, or if the printer is being used continuously over a long period.

Printer Location

Do not block or cover the slots or openings on the printer. These openings are provided for
ventilation and to prevent overheating of the printer.
Place the printer in a dust-free area where there is adequate space for operation and servicing. For
details, see Choosing a Location for the Printer on page 31.
Do not store or operate the printer in an extremely hot, cold, or humid environment. For
specifications on optimum performance environment, see Environmental Specifications on
page 155.
Place the printer on a level, solid, non-vibrating surface with adequate strength to hold the weight
of the printer. The base printer weight without any packaging materials is approximately 18.4 kg
(40.57 lb.).
Do not place the printer near a heat source.
Do not place the printer in direct sunlight to avoid exposure to light-sensitive components.
Do not place the printer where it is directly exposed to the cold air flow from an air conditioning
unit.
Do not place the printer in locations susceptible to vibrations.
For optimum performance, use the printer at elevations below 3,000 m (11,480 ft.).

Printer Supplies

Use the supplies specifically designed for your printer. The use of unsuitable materials may cause
poor performance and a possible safety hazard.
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on, or supplied with, the printer, options, and supplies.
Caution: Use of non-Xerox supplies is not recommended. The Xerox Warranty, Service Agreements,
and Total Satisfaction Guarantee do not cover damage, malfunction, or degradation of
performance caused by use of non-Xerox supplies, or the use of Xerox supplies not specified for this
printer. The Total Satisfaction Guarantee is available in the United States and Canada. Coverage
may vary outside these areas; please contact your local representative for details.

Power Saver Mode

This section includes:
Setting the Power Saver Time on page 24
Exiting Power Saver Mode on page 24
Starting Power Saver Mode on page 24
The printer is equipped with a Power Saver mode to reduce power consumption when it is left idle for a specified period of time. When no print data is received for the duration set in the Power Saver Time, (30 minutes is the default), the printer enters Power Saver mode. Time ranges from 5 minutes to 60 minutes can be specified, in one-minute increments. Power consumption during Power Saver mode is 8 W or less, and the time required to exit from Power Saver mode to a print-ready status is about 20 seconds.

Setting the Power Saver Time

1. On the printer control panel, press the Menu button.
2. Press the Down Arrow button to go to Admin Menu and then press the OK button.
3. Arrow down to System Setup and then press OK.
4. At Power Saver Time, press OK.
Do one of the following:
To increase the amount of time, press the Up Arrow button until the desired time is reached
(maximum is 60 minutes).
To decrease the amount of time, press the Down Arrow button until the desired time is
reached (minimum is 5 minutes).
5. Press OK.

Exiting Power Saver Mode

The printer automatically cancels Power Saver mode when it receives data from a connected computer. However, you can cancel Power Saver mode by pressing the Wake Up button on the printer control panel. For an illustration showing the location of the Wake Up button, see Control Panel on page 21.

Starting Power Saver Mode

If you will not be using the printer for a while and want to switch into Power Saver mode without having to wait for it to do so automatically from the default settings, press the Wake Up button on the printer control panel. The printer must currently be idle and have been idle for at least one minute when you press the Wake Up button. If the printer is receiving data, or is calibrating after having been in Power Saver mode or having been restarted after a cleared jam, or if you have pressed another button within the last minute, it will not go into Power Saver mode.
